I will disagree with that, on closer inspection i think if it was just indented they would have some sort of mesh in there to make it look good, but it does look like to me that it is the same shade of black as the hood bra and not the car it's self, If it was being back recessed like that it would be much darker. Plus you can just about make out a couple wrinkles in it...

QUOTE-Skyman 08 Those headlight enclosures DO look like they are in a finished state not something just tacked on. why go to the trouble so spending the money to tool up a mold for headlight surrounds if you were't at least considering using them??

Anyways, The car is still over a year away, so small details can change between now and then. Be open to possibilities and don't shun them away..

I dont know, when i first saw those early spy shots with these headlights, i remembered the malibu's headlights setup. I remembered seeing those spyshots and thinking "god i hope they dont keep those headlights cause it looks cheap." I just think this setup on the malibu looks a lot like on the camaro. This is the best pic i could find:

That almost looks identical! Perhaps GM has a standard test-lights housing that htey use for any prototype vehicles that need them??

With the bowtie on the front it kind of takes your eyes off the headlights and makes you concentrate on how sweet the front end it.... or at least it does for me. It almost accents the lights, making them alomst cooler.

I got a question on the PS job. Did the road sign in the back also get photoshopped in? Because the original pics has Swedish signs in the background and the PS job as one from Ohio I am guessing. Just curious because its the same driver in both pics etc...and scenery looks the same. Unless for some reason the original pic was PS'd too?

And I do think the headlight setup may be some pre-fabbed test mule setup that GM has for all its developing vehicles and they just "trim to fit" as needed. It does look like the Malibu's setup, and the whole section looks like an easy to remove modular block.

Anyway..its a nice PS job.

Thanks. I PS'd the sign, because I like seeing the car in the US rather than Europe!
